Man convicted of poisoning wife: Her liver proves otherwise


A former University of Pittsburgh medical researcher deserves a new trial in the death of his wife because her donated liver suggests she wasn't poisoned with cyanide as prosecutors contend, his attorney argued Wednesday. Robert Ferrante's attorney asked a three-judge Superior Court panel to grant a new trial in the April 2013 death of Dr. Autumn Klein or, at least, allow for an evidentiary hearing at which the liver recipient could testify.
